Hey fellas have you heard the news?
You know that Annie's back in town.
It won't take long just watch and see,
How the fellas lay their money down.
Her style is new but the face is the same,
As it was so long ago.
But from her eyes a different smile,
Like that of one who knows.

Well it's been ten years and maybe more,
Since I first set eyes on you.
The best years of my life gone by,
Here I am alone and blue.
Some people cry and some people die,
By the wicked ways of love.
But I'll just keep on rolling along
With the grace of the lord above.

People talking all around,
About the way you left me flat.
I don't care what the people say,
I know where their jive is at.
One thing I do have on my mind,
If you can clarify please do,
It's the way you call me by another guy's name,
When I try to make love to you.

Work so hard I couldn't unwind,
Get some money saved.
Abuse my love a thousand times,
However hard I tried.
Heartbreaker your time has come,
Can't take your evil way.
Go away heartbreaker.

Hey girl stop what you're doing.
Hey girl you'll drive me to ruin.
I don't know what it is about you but I like it a lot.
Oh let me hold you.
Let me feel your loving charms.

Communication Breakdown,
It's always the same.
I'm having a nervous breakdown,
Drive me insane.

Hey girl I got something I think you ought to know.
Hey babe I wanna tell you that I love you so.
I wanna hold you in my arms, yeah.
I'm never gonna let you go.
Yes I like your charms.

Communication Breakdown,
It's always the same.
I'm having a nervous breakdown,
Drive me insane.

Communication Breakdown,

I'm having a nervous breakdown,
Drive me insane.

Babe, baby, baby, I'm gonna leave you.

I'll leave you in the summer time,
Leave you when the summer comes a rollin.
Leave you when the summer comes along.

Babe, babe, babe, babe, babe, babe, babe,
Baby, baby, I don't wanna leave you,
I ain't joking woman, I got to ramble.
Oh, yeah, baby, baby, I won't be there,
Really got to ramble.

I can hear it calling me back home.

Babe, oh, babe, I'm gonna leave you.

But I got to go away from this place,
I've got to quit you yeah.
Ooh, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby,
Baby, ooh don't you hear it calling?
Woman, woman, I know, I know it's good to have you back again
And I know that one day baby, it's really gonna grow yes it is.
We gonna go walking through the park every day.

Every day,
Oh, I'm gonna let you go away.
Sweet baby, it was really really going,
You made me happy every single day,
But now I've got to go away, oh.

Baby, baby, baby,
That's when it's calling me,
That's when it's calling me back home.

If I say to you tomorrow,
Take my hand child come with me,
It's to a castle I will take you,
Where what's to be they say will be.

Catch the wind see us spin,
Sail away leave the day,
Way up high in the sky.
But the wind won't blow,
You really shouldn't go,
It only goes to show.
That you will be mine,
By taking our time.

And if you say to me tomorrow,
Oh what fun it all would be,
Then what's to stop us pretty baby,
But what is and what should never be.

Catch the wind see us spin,
Sail away leave the day,
Way up high in the sky.

But the wind won't blow,
You really shouldn't go,
It only goes to show.
That you will be mine,
By taking our time.

So if you wake up with the sunrise,
And all your dreams are still as new,
And happiness is what you need so bad,
Girl the answer lies with you.

Catch the wind see us spin,
Sail away leave the day,
Way up high in the sky.
But the wind won't blow,
You really shouldn't go,
It only goes to show.
That you will be mine,
By taking our time.

Everybody I know seems to know me well,
But does anybody know I'm gonna move like hell?

If the sun refused to shine,
I would still be loving you.
When mountains crumble to the sea,
There will still be you and me.

Kind woman,
I give you my all.
Kind woman,
Nothing more.

Little drops of rain,
Whisper of the pain,
Tears of loves lost in the days gone by.
My love is strong,
With you there is no wrong,
Together we shall go until we die.
Inspiration's what you are to me,
Inspiration, look see.

And so today,
My world it smiles,
Your hand in mine we walk the miles.
Thanks to you it will be done,
For you to me are the only one.
Happiness, no more be sad,
Happiness, I'm glad.

If the sun refused to shine,
I would still be loving you.
When mountains crumble to the sea,
There will still be you and me.

I can't quit you babe.
So I think I'm gonna put you down for a while.
I can't quit you babe.
I think I'm gonna put you down for a while.
I said you messed up my happy home.
Made me mistreat my only child.

You know I love you babe.
My love for you I could never hide.
You know I love you babe.
My love for you I could never hide.
When I feel you near me little girl,
I know you are my one desire.

When you hear me moaning and groaning babe,
You know it hurts me deep down inside.
When you hear me moaning and groaning babe,
You know it hurts me deep down inside.
When you hear me, You know you're my one desire.

Been dazed and confused for so long it's not true,
Wanted a woman never bargained for you.
Lots of people talk and few of them know,
Soul of a woman was created below.

You hurt and abused telling all of your lies,
Run arounds sweet baby lord how they hypnotize.
Sweet little baby I don't know where you've been,
God I love you baby here I come again.

Every day I work so hard bringing home my hard earned pay
Try to love you baby but you push me away.
Don't know where you're going only know just where you've been,
Sweet little baby I want you again.

Been dazed and confused for so long it's not true,
Wanted a woman never bargained for you.
Take it easy baby let them say what they will.
(Did your) tongue wag so much when I sent you the bill?

Lying cheating hurting,
That's all you seem to do.
Messing around with every guy in town,
Putting me down for thinking of someone new.
Always the same playing your game,
Drive me insane trouble's gonna come to you.
One of these days and it won't be long,
You'll look for me but baby I'll be gone.

Your time is gonna come.

Made up my mind to break you this time,
Won't be so fine it's my turn to cry.
Do want you want I won't take the brunt.
It's fading away can't feel you anymore.
Don't care what you say because I'm gone away to stay,
Gonna make you pay for that great big hole in my heart.
People talking all around watch out woman,
No longer is the joke gonna be on my heart.
You been bad to me woman,
But it's coming back home to you.

Your time is gonna come.

Leaves are falling all around,
It's time I was on my way.
Thanks to you I'm much obliged,
For such a pleasant stay.

But now it's time for me to go,
The autumn moon lights my way.
For now I smell the rain,
And with it pain,
And it's headed my way.
Sometimes I grow so tired,
But I know I've got one thing I got to do,

Ramble on,
And now's the time the time is now.
To sing my song,
I'm going around the world,
I got to find my girl.
On my way,
I've been this way ten years to the day.
Ramble on,
Gotta find the queen of all my dreams.

Got no time to for spreading roots,
The time has come to be gone.
And though our health we drank a thousand times,
It's time to ramble on.

Ramble on,
And now's the time the time is now.
To sing my song,
I'm going around the world,
I got to find my girl.
On my way,
I've been this way ten years to the day.
Ramble on,
Gotta find the queen of all my dreams.

I ain't telling no lie.

Mine's a tale that can't be told,
My freedom I hold dear.
How years ago in days of old,
When magic filled the air.
It was in the darkest depths of Mordor,
I met a girl so fair.
But Gollum and the evil one crept up,
And slipped away with her.

Ain't nothing I can do no,
I guess I'll keep on rambling.
I'm gonna shake.
Gonna ramble on, sing my song.
Gonna work my way around the world.
I can't stop this feeling in my heart,
Gotta keep searching for my baby.

Asked sweet mama,
Let me be her kid.
She said "You might get hurt,
If you don't keep it hid."
Well I know my baby,
If I see her in the dark.
I said I know my rider,
If I see her in the dark.

Now I going to Rosedale,
Take my rider by my side.
Still barrelhouse,
If it's on the riverside.
I know my baby,
Is really sloppy drunk.
I know my mama,
A brownskin but she ain't no plum.

See my baby tell her,
Tell her hurry home.
Had no loving since,
My baby been gone.
See my baby,
Tell hurry on home.
I ain't had my right mind,
Since my rider's been gone.

Hey she promises,
She's my rider.
I wanna tell you,
She's my rider.
I know you're mine,
She's my rider.
She ain't but sixteen,
But she's my rider.

I'm going to Rosedale,
Take my rider by side.
Anybody argue with me man,
I'll keep them satisfied.
Well see my baby tell her,
Tell her the shape I'm in.
Ain't had no loving,
Since you know when.

She's a kindhearted lady,
She studies evil all the time.
She's a kindhearted woman,
She studies evil all the time.

Squeeze my lemon,
Till the juice runs down my leg.
Squeeze it so hard,
I fall right out of bed.
Squeeze my lemon,
Till the juice runs down my leg.
The way that you squeeze it girl,
I swear I'm gonna fall right out of bed.

She's my kindhearted lady,
I'm gonna take my rider by my side.
I said her front teeth are lined with gold.
She's gotta mortgage on my body,
Gotta lien on my soul.
She's my brownskin sugar plum.

Bright light almost blinding,
Black night still there shining.
I can't stop keep on climbing,
Looking for what I knew.

Had a friend she once told me,
"You got a love, you ain't lonely."
Now she's gone and left me only,
Looking for what I knew.

I'm telling you now,
The greatest thing you ever can do now,
Is trade a smile with someone who's blue now,
It's very easy just.

Met a man on the roadside crying,
Without a friend there's no denying.
You're incomplete there'll be no finding,
Looking for what you knew.

So anytime somebody needs you,
Don't let them down although it grieves you,
Someday you'll need someone like they do,
Looking for what you knew.

I'm telling you now,
The greatest thing you ever can do now,
Is trade a smile with someone who's blue now,
It's very easy just.

Her face is cracked from smiling,
All the fears that she's been hiding,
And it seems that pretty soon everybody's gonna know.
And her voice is sore from shouting,
Cheering winners who are losing,
And she worries if their days are few,
And soon they'll have to go.

My my my I'm so happy,
I'm gonna join the band,
We gonna dance and sing in celebration,
We're in the promised land.

She hears them talk of new ways,
To protect the home she lives in.
Then she wonders what it's all about,
When they break down the door.

Her name is Brown or White or Black,
You know her very well,
You hear her cries of mercy,
As the winners toll the bell.

My my my I'm so happy,
I'm gonna join the band,
We gonna sing and dance in celebration,
We're in the promised land.

There is a train that leaves the station,
Heading for your destination,
But the price you pay to nowhere has increased a dollar more.
Yes it has.
And if you walk you're gonna get there,
And though it takes a little longer,
And when you see it in the distance,
You will wring your hands and moan.

Wanna tell ya 'bout the girl I love.
My she looks so fine.
A-she's the only one that I've been dreamin' of.
Maybe someday she will be all mine.
I wanna tell her that I love her so.
I thrill with her every touch.
I need to tell her she's the only one I really love.

I've got a woman - one bought all day.
I've got a woman - she won't be true, no.
I've got a woman - stay drunk all the time.
I've said I got a little woman and she won't be true.

A-Sunday morning when we go down to church.
See the men-folk standin' in line.
Who say they come to pray to the Lord.
When my little girl looks so fine.
In the evenin' when the sun is sinkin' low
And everybody's with the one they love.
I walk the town keep a-searchin' all around.
Lookin' for my streetcorner girl.

I've got a woman - one bought all day, yeah.
I've got a woman - she won't be true, no, no.
I've got a woman - stay drunk all the time.
I've said I got a little woman and she won't be true.

In the bars with the men who play guitars.
Sittin', drinkin', and rememb'rin' the time.
My little lover does a midnight shift.
She fools around all o' the time.
I guess there's just one thing left for me to do.
That's to pack my bags and move on my way.
'Cause I got a worried mind.
Sharin' what I thought was mine.
Gonna leave her with the guitar's playin'.

I've got a woman - she won't be true, no, no.
I've got a woman - woman bought all day, yeah, no, no.
I've got a woman - stay drunk all the time
I've got a little woman and she won't be true.

I said she won't be true.
No, yeah, no, yeah, no, yeah, no, yeah, no!
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
Keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on
Keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on
Yeah, yeah!

Ah yeah ah yeah ah yeah ah yeah
Hey, hey, what can I do?  I got a woman she won't be true!
Woah woah woah hear what I say!  I got a woman, woman bought all day!

Keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on
Yeah, yeah!
